I Waited

By Chad Hollis

Like an emotional corpse
I waited for you to come
Like a letter that was
Due to arrive at any time

And I waited
Somewhat paralyzed
Afraid to live without you
And yet I knew you not

I waited for the sun
To shine upon my flesh
That had grown so cold
Longing for your touch

I waited armed with a dream
That burned secretly within
The many chambers of my heart
Until you arrived
